Information Manager

Keltbray Infrastructure Services Limited (KISL) is a leading specialist infrastructure services provider, applying its proactive relationship management approach with customer teams, supply chain partners and regulatory bodies.

We are seeking an experienced Information Manager with a strong background in document control and practical expertise in managing information workflows within the built environment

We recognise that effective and well controlled information management is vital in achieving our goals and we have an exciting opportunity for a pro-active, detail orientated and experienced candidate to join our A66 project team.

Job Description

As an Information Manager, you will be instrumental in setting up the systems and processes that will drive our success. In the project's early stages, you will also take on a hands-on role as operations ramp up. This position is ideal for a seasoned Senior Document Controller ready to step into an Information Manager role, with the capability to manage document control (DC) responsibilities until a dedicated Document Controller is appointed, which is anticipated early in the new year as demand grows.

The appointed Document Controller will report directly to you, and as such, previous experience in line management and mentoring is essential.

Additionally, you will own, update, and audit the project’s Information Management Plan, ensuring we meet our client’s needs and our own internal reporting requirements. Whilst this is a project-based role, you will also benefit from functional leadership and support from our central Digital Delivery team, ensuring access to best practices, resources, and guidance throughout the project lifecycle.
